Protests in New York on Thursday: The US city’s firefighters union calls on a state court to suspend a vaccination mandate issued by Mayor Bill de Blasio. Accordingly, around 50,000 municipal employees are required to be vaccinated by Friday. If they fail to do so, they will be put on unpaid leave. President of the Uniformed Firefighters Association, Jim Mccarthy: “We came to every call. Our members were exposed to Covid. Many of our people became seriously ill. After that they had the same antibodies as after vaccination. Why are these people not vaccinated equal? ” Leading representatives of the “Uniformed Firefighters Association” have already urged unvaccinated firefighters to report in protest, despite de Blasio’s orders, to put pressure on the city.
